    Nope, Beta was boring and looked "old".

    Nope, New world is still keeping me busy and I resubbed to FFXIV to finish a few things before Endwalker, so I'm pretty busy for a bit.

    Nothing jaw-dropping for me here as far as I know. Might wait for some reviews, but that doesn't change the fact that this game is already quite outdated in terms of gameplay and graphics. And those levitating skateboards? Yuck. I'd rather keep waiting for Ashes or come back to BDO/Albion as they develop in a quite nice pace right now.

    No, I didn't like the first incarnation and then when they changed it, it was even less interesting.

    At least the first version had air ship and flying battles. Is that still a thing or can people just fly around?

    No, thanks. Busy with Lotro, EQ2, and Swtor.

    I'm not an IT Specialist, Game Developer, or Clairvoyant in real life, but like others on here, I play one on the internet.

    Yep enjoyed head start for a break from other games. Servers open full F2P today. Time to re-balance playtime with my other games now :-)

    The pvp is p2w/pay 2 getgud. Unlike BDO the graphics are pretty dated, so it doesn't even have looks going for it. This will be another Astellia Online canceled game unfortunately. Endwalker will be the incap, Lost Ark the deathblow.

    I'm only really focused on FFXIV and RuneScape right now, so I'll probably play for a day or two, just to shake things up with something shiny and new. :)

    i guess all the "yes" people are in game and not reading the forums at the moment. :p 

    I'm tempted and its F2P so nothing really lost to give it a shot. That said, still enjoying New World and NMS just started a new Expedition today. So those two have my attention right now.

    I'm playing it and i'll do so pretty causal this time of the year.

    Its a very decent game. Better from my PoV than say .. Bless Unleashed.

    But, the first Hour of playing the "Story", is pretty meh, I give you that. Try going past say 2 hours and jump into the first Dungeon and things will really open.

    Hf, whoever is planning to play it! :)

    I'll probably try it, re-realize it's still as old looking and not fun as it was in beta and then uninstall it again.
  • DekahnDekahn Member UncommonPosts: 106
    No thanks, open world pvp and gear breaking is a huge no from me.

    The Steam reviews are fairly harsh at about 49% positive.  However, if you restrict to people who played 5+ hours before posting a review, it's more like 90% positive.  Apparently the game makes a bad first impression for a lot of people.

    Im fooling around in it , and ill say i surprised at the depth of class builds , there is an awful lot under the hood to tweak your build ..

     Combat is fun ..

    I am playing it and after not really enjoying the beta this time I am actually having fun.

    Just not a fan of forced PvP. If PvP was optional I might spend some time in it. I enjoyed the little bit of PvE as a new character during Beta. Combat seemed fun enough.

    yes, I just realize the UI is worse than BDO, it feels like a mix of archeage (2 realms forced pvp), revelation online, and bless.
  • torke90torke90 Member UncommonPosts: 16

    Sure, better in general than NW, especially the combat, much more fluid, and free, fucking free.

    Elyon haters to me!

    You are right.

    When I first tried it in Closed Beta 2, I was this close to Alt F4 in the middle of the "Story" ( the one from the very beginning ). Is very meh.

    Things changed, when I got to this .. planet and the map opened and I saw players and such.

    Yup! Class build is pretty big. I mean, I'm sure there are the "meta" ones, but it does look like you can customize your build as you please and still be decently good.

    I played extensively during the beta and now during launch, but I can't recommend this MMO. I am confident it is going to go the way of Astellia in a few months.
